Simple Wonders

23 | Education is a Life


Listen Later

Why don't my children enjoy school?
How can I increase their curiosity and desire to learn?
What kind of subjects should I teach and how should I present them?
In this episode I discuss these questions and how they relate to the last instrument of education (and my personal favorite):
LIFE.
In Charlotte Mason's 20 principles she says: "in saying 'education is a life,' the need of intellectual and moral as well as of physical sustenance is implied. The mind feeds on ideas, and therefore children should have a generous curriculum.”
In this episode I'll discuss big ideas, like how the mind works, grows, and develops. What is the best kind of mind-food, and how parents can provide a feast of ideas for their children.
